Hello, I'm Jay.
Hello, I'm Jay.
Turning my love for nature into capturing love in nature.
I'm a photographer, filmmaker, naturalist, and lifelong explorer with a deep love for wild places. My work has taken me around the world documenting wildlife, landscapes, people, and the stories that connect us to the natural world.
I bring that same curiosity and sense of wonder to weddings—capturing honest moments, beautiful light, and photographs that feel like you.
Simply put — love is wild
Nature taught me
to wait, to observe, and to anticipate moments before they happen. To let things unfold instead of forcing them. It’s the same approach I bring to every wedding—capturing the moments that happen naturally, just as they are.
My love for photography extends far beyond weddings. I spend much of my time documenting wildlife and wild places, often on film. That connection to the natural world has also led me into wildlife rescue and conservation, and to founding Wild Creative, a nonprofit bringing creatives and conservation together.
Film has taught me to slow down, wait for the right moment, and embrace a little imperfection. Nature has taught me much of the same—and both continue to shape the way I see through a camera, whether I’m photographing wildlife, a landscape, or a wedding day.
When I’m not photographing weddings...
I’m usually somewhere outside with a camera—photographing wildlife, shooting film, exploring a national park, working with wildlife rescue, or planning the next place I want to disappear into for a few days.
